Kevin Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 Ka- Ka- KA Chewwww-ul ! I think I'd better pack it in and look after this ' condition' ... get some sleep or something.... BTW : Who won the Derby this year ? Where was Harland Sanders born ? Oh, the questions just keep popping into my mind ... can't sleep !
Aunt_Acid Posted July 2, 2005 Author Report Posted July 2, 2005 Wait, I think I get it. You said you were Irish, because you were under the illusion that having Irish genealogy also gave you Irish citizenship. Right? Well you see, that's a common misconception. But I understand. See, my great great great Grandfather was German, so I like to wear Swastikas and drive 90 MPH on the freeway.
Kevin Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 So does Prince Harry .... and he's stoned and in a tank
edna Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 So does Prince Harry .... and he's stoned and in a tank You can be Irish without having the Irish citizenship. If your grandads are Irish and you are raised with Irish habbits and your folks try to keep Irish culture among the family, for instance, you can be... half Irish? :: well, I am half many things, and most of the people I knew where also more or less the same. Of course, I also know many people who only have one citizenship and are just one thing (French, Peruvian, Swedish, whatever...)
Kevin Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 Oh, oh ! Here comes the U.N ... time to split !!
edna Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 Kevin, what time is it in Tokyo right now? :: Oh, wait... it must be 8.00 PM now...not that late... When I had to work with Japan I had to go the office at midnight and stay till 3 or four in the morning... Otherwise you´d never find a soul in their offices... :beady: And yes, they used to call me the UN!!

SoulGirl Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 Oh, so you moved to Kentucky from the UK then?
